I agree. TUMI laptop bags and backpacks target the professional set (consultants and such that need to look polished at a client meeting and want a backpack that doesn't clash with a suit), not the set that is trekking in the jungle.


I'm not trekking the jungle I'm just going to be on a whirlwind tour in Asia but I did want something functional. I don't need rugged Ospry that looks like I'm camping. I'm going to big cities and some smaller towns and will be out and on trains, plains and automobiles. I am riding cable cars up a mountain but not climbing up the mountain

I usually carry Skip Hop Forma Diaper Bag but would love to explore a bigger version or something along those lines. Maybe I use a small one up the mountain but a larger one for duration of my trip. I'm still figuring it out. But need something flex, wide but not long, because I'm short. Top opening with pockets galore. I don't need fancy but I like progressive ie pockets and interesting/creative design. I like Caraa but none of their stuff is going to be big enough for me on this trip. I like MZ Wallace but they don't have any packs that I think work on this trip. I like Dagne Dover but ditto. I would like 30L+ I don't want just a standard pack but I don't need Peak. I like Eddie Bauer 32L diaper bag. Maybe Cotopaxi.

PP - Yeah - Briggs is one of the best things I've ever brought

Your list of specific requirements reminds me of Meg Ryan ordering at a restaurant in "When Harry Met Sally".

They also make larger (40L) and smaller sizes, depending on your needs for both capacity and manageability.


Your post has zero useful information for the OP. Congratulations on owning a Tumi bag and knowing that they have a website where they sell products.
